I’m going to go out on a limb and state unequivocally that I think civil liberties and gender equality are Very Good Things. All else equal, I’d much rather live in a society in which freedom of speech is protected and women have all of the rights and opportunities afforded to men. I bring this

I’m going to go out on a limb and state unequivocally that I think civil liberties and gender equality are Very Good Things. All else equal, I’d much rather live in a society in which freedom of speech is protected and women have all of the rights and opportunities afforded to men.

I bring this up because a common assumption that guides much of global economic policy is that as developing countries get richer, they will start valuing these qualities as well. There’s a belief that regardless of the sequencing, political modernization will not trail too far behind economic modernization. Even in anomalous countries like Singapore, for example, there are trends suggesting that richer societies start demanding all those political and personal freedoms that many in the West take for granted. Crudely and simply put, a guiding assumption behind much Western policymaking (as well as many foes of the West writ large) is that modernization = Westernization.

I bring this up because China and India are, at the present moment, trying to prove this assumption is wrong. China has been getting very rich very fast, and yet the Chinese government seems more repressive than ever. So much for political liberties.

hope it helps you ☺️
